Research informed learning supports for children with attention and behavior challenges
Tuesday, May 18, 2021 3:30pm to 4pm
About this Event
Children with attention and behavioral challenges such as ADHD can often fall behind peers with similar academic ability levels. Teachers report that training and information about supporting students with attention and behavioral difficulties is often lacking from their initial training. In this webinar, Dr. Merrill will describe the science behind supporting the learning of students with ADHD or attention and behavioral difficulties. Attendees will learn actionable and efficient strategies to support students’ learning and behavior.
